A member asked:
Eus found pancreatic tail duct dilated to 1.8mm with surrounding isoechoic changes. what can cause this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You: should be followed by a Gastroenterologist who can interpret these findings...isoechogenicity means "same" "blending" The dilated duct needs explanation and may require Pancreatic duct study (done along with endoscopic evaluation) Hope this helps! Dr Z
